I’ve managed to dig out my driveway, cutting a path through the snow drifts, but the roads are scary, reduced to 1 1/2 lanes at unexpected, brake-hitting moments.

This month, I feel like – well, there’s nothing astounding to report again. Making tiny amounts of money from writing, not enough […]
So here’s my post for the Insecure Writer’s Support Group, led by the inimitable Alex Cavanaugh, who has promised us a surprise today. (I’ll admit it, my curiosity is piqued!) Up until this moment, I had no idea what I was going to say for this month’s post. Literally. I just deleted a draft entitled […]
Here’s my third post for celebrate the Small Things where every week we look at what we’ve accomplished . What I’ve accomplished this week. 1. Made it to work every day. I’m on the bus on the way to Friday so that counts! 2. Made it to the gym almost every day. See next bullet! […]
